The Kenton Hotel

Had a lovely overnight stay. Lady who runs it was lovely and very hardworking. Room was clean and comfortable, with extras like a bottle of water, small fridge. En-suite was clean and good shower. Was lovely to have parking on site and free tea and coffee at any time was a nice touch. We had breakfast too, which was lovely and good value for money. I would definitely recommend and would absolutely stay there again if I visit the open air theatre in future.

Warm welcome on check in, room was clean and fresh on arrival. Parking was tight but okay, only enough for 6 cars

I'm an oap and put on the top floor, no lift

Really friendly and attentive. The drinks at the bar were great value. Would stay again that's for sure.

A nice quiet place to stay. Car parking a bonus! A clean room and bathroom. A good pub just up the road too.

Friendly host mini fridge in ro large TV excellent lounge/bar. No breakfast provided was a minus

Check in and parking was easy. The property was very clean. The old sash window rattled when open so I had to shut it which made the room warm.

The Kenton is right on the sea front (the back of the property with the customer car park on North Marine Road). Fantastic view from the rear, overlooking the coastline, waves crashing in, the headland and castle ruins off to the right. It was early evening and quite windy when I arrived. It’s easy to find, the signage stands out. There’s space for a few cars and parking is free to customers. On street parking around Scarborough is free only after 6pm. There’s a few steps up to the back door and the front door is on street level on Queens Parade. The corridor, reception room with bar and dining room were all warm, welcoming and clean. Quite a homely feel to the place. I was welcomed by one of the staff who checked me in. She was really friendly, helpful and polite. I briefly went up to my room as I was on my way to the SJTheatre in town to see a show and didn’t want to be late. I had room no.1 on the 1st floor, it was small but just right for 1 person, high ceiling, nicely decorated, warm and cosy. With a double bed, washbasin, mini fridge, wall mounted TV and tea & coffee facilities. Towels were provided also. I had a private bathroom (toilet and shower) just round the corner from my room next to rooms 2 & 3. Clean & tidy. I didn’t get the opportunity to stay overnight as I had an offer of work the next day, so decided to drive back. I can’t comment on the bed or how peaceful it is on a Friday night, but I didn’t see any pubs or clubs in the immediate area. I’d book again.

We had a great overnight stay. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and very clean, with a fantastic view over the North Bay. It is in a very handy position for both bays and also Peasholm park or the Open Air Theatre. It’s only a short walk to the town centre and station. Handy parking outside and a very easy check in process. We will certainly book again next time we come to Scarborough. We saw a wonderful sunrise from the bedroom window and got some great pics😊

Room was at the top of the hotel, up lots of very narrow stairs, very basic room which felt more like a spare room, hotel is definitely not a 4 star, struggle to be a 2 Room was very dated and small things werent right, the bedside light fitting was ver loose, the ceiling had decor missing, the wallpaper is like something out of the eighties, the room was tiny, cold and very unwelcoming, the only thing this hotel provided above a 2 star was the toilet roll. Even the water cups were white plastic vending machine type. We wont be going back I understand that you get what you pay for but we were still very much overcharged. The only positive was the young lady that welcomed us, she was very polite and cheery.

Everything was amazing, the breakfast was beautiful and there wasnt a brand of tea and coffee not available. The lady in charge was so so kind, there was a mix up with our reservation (my fault) however she was so understanding and our stay went ahead. Plenty of outdorr seating area front and back, all clean and tidy. Inside was spotless, cosy and welcoming. Ill definitely be coming back, it was away from the hustle and bustle but a glorious view of the sea. 10/10.

All good,very clean,comfortable,very pleased 👍

No heating shower cold

Decent enough place to stay. Showing it's age in places but overall clean and tidy. Staff were friendly. Easy to check in, and I set off early the following morning - leaving the keys in the box in the hallway. Very convenient for the town centre and seafront if you don't mind a few minutes walk. Variety of restaurants nearby, even before you reach the town centre.

Very smart interior. All amenities their. wi.fi. Fan in room very welcome. Easy to get to north beach or to walk to town or south beach. Very informative member of staff greeted us. Everything very clean.

Mattress in room 1 seemed old and creaky spring pushing through needs changing ASAP

I enjoyed most of my time here but was very disappointed to find out that my toilet and shower was down the other end of the corridor. It was private and clean but when you wake up in middle of the night needing the loo it is not convienient to have to get fully dressed before using the facilities. I thought I was in a room with ensuite facilities so this was a big downer on an otherwise fantastic hotel

I had only spent one night in this property on a one-day trip to Scarborough. I was disappointed that my single room was facing the street rather then the North Sea; my private bathroom was also separate from my room, which was a bit inconvenient - but it had an excellent beach view. I struggled a bit with door lock too. However I had a sink in my room, I had access to an electric kettle, cups, coffee/tea/bottled water and towels/soap (no toiletries though) and it was pleasantly quiet in the building. The room was quite spacious and comfortable, with more conveniences I had opportunity to use. I appreciated really hot radiator in the evening after a long walk battling chilly wind and intermittent rain. Check-in was quite smooth and communication was relevant. The area is attractive to walk about if weather permits, there is even a small cinema and a pub within short walking distance. It was fascinating to contemplate this seaside town only just waking up from a winter hibernation. Despite challenging weather, I had pleasant time, especially in the Scarborough castle and beach areas. Overall, I was quite satisfied with this property and I would recommend it for a short, no frills stay, even out of season.

Great place but spoiled by the walk along the corridor during the night to use my private bathroom

Amazing value and location. It even had a tiny fridge in the room!

Was stayibg at hotel for a JLS consert. Hotel was lovely and clean. Was in room 8. Only thing wifi didnt work very well. Think it needs a booster added to get to top floors

Fab place to stay, big light room with magic views to the coastline. Bed really comfortable and staff so friendly. Definitely recommend

Didnt like the communal toilet and.showet

Very friendly and helpful hosts and both of the downstairs rooms and the bedroom were very beautifully decorated.

I soend a good time in Kenton hotel, friendly staff and good service.

Amy the host was first class and even upgraded my room after she had found out i had a bad day with my car breaking down and she also waited for me well after the time i was supposed to check in. Great room, great location and top customer service. Would definitely recommend

Lovely and comfy, food location

Lovely place to stay perfect location over looking the beautiful north bay all beaches in walking distance, Room was just right for me small & quiet as dnt like big rooms when travelling alone, was clean and so peacefully quiet in the hotel, hosts were very polite & welcoming, and the veiw over the bay is stunning, can only say 1 thing didnt like was the bed as was too hard & uncomfortable apart from that everything was nice and enjoyed my stay thr, i would definately recomend to any1 looking for a stay in scarborough, i will definately go back to this hotel in the near future

We loved it here, room had a gorgeous view and the family room wa spacious. Bunk bed was a bit creakky (but our kids were probably too big for them really.) Fab locations for the northbay side where there is lots to do. Breakfast was AMAZING!

Had a great time and nice short walk into centre and can highly recomend the breakfast. We have already booked again for our next trip.

Lovely place to stay very clean and close to the beach. Excellent food and well priced would recommend full English and American pancakes cooked perfect. Staff were very friendly and helpful we will definitely be staying again.
